experience, demographic d ata such as age, sex, race and indication for lumbar puncture, procedural data such as number of attempts, number of needle redirections, use of local anesthetics and/or sedation, and need for repositioning or alternative operator (another MD) for the lumbar puncture. ...
Realising the paucity of data in the standardisation of the optimal position for lumbar puncture (LP) in hospitalised neonates, we have designed an observational study to measure the interspinous distance in infants in a university hospital setting. The infants were placed in two lateral recumbent an...
This position is usually used for sleeping, and several medical procedures such as after a lumbar puncture (can sometimes help prevent a headache), cardiac procedures (heart cath via the femoral artery), abdominal surgeries including c-sections, and ahead-to-toe assessment. However, this position ...
ObjectiveThis study aimed to preliminarily explore the application of three⁃dimensional visual virtual surgery system combined with self⁃made intervertebral foramen positioning puncture device in percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal decompression(PETD)of lumbar spinal stenosis(LSS)and to evaluate the accura...
Variation in position.In supine position, legs may be extended or slightly bent with arms up or down. It providescomfortin general for patients under recovery after some type of surgery. Most commonly used position.Supine or dorsal recumbent is used for general examination or physicalassessment. ...
Positioning for lumbar puncture, measured by ultrasonographyA., OzensoyR., KosifM., OzararT.A., AyazotluB.A., Taz
The utility model relates to a positioning and puncture apparatus for the prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc, comprising a platform provided with a support leg, a protractor which is perpendicular to the platform on one edge of the platform, and a guide tube whose central line can pass ...
Objective: The lateral and sitting positions are those most widely used to perform lumbar puncture (LP) in infants. This study sought to compare LP success rates by position. Secondary outcomes were successful LP on the first attempt and rates of procedural complications.Hanson, Amy L.Schunk, ...
